1) What DinkBank Is (and Isn't)

  • We track pro pickleball earnings — prize money, reported contracts/sponsorships, and related figures — across PPA, MLP, and APP.
  • We are not affiliated with any tour, team, agent, or athlete unless expressly stated.
  • Our goal is to be transparent and authoritative while staying approachable for fans and B2B audiences (media, sponsors, agents, tours).

2) Data Sources & Accuracy

  • Prize money is compiled from official tournament results, press releases, credible media reports, and direct submissions.
  • Contract/sponsorship figures may be
    reported
    ,
    estimated
    , or
    undisclosed
    . When exact terms aren't public, we label entries accordingly.
  • Event totals may be updated post-event for corrections (DQs, withdrawals, retroactive adjustments).
  • We strive for accuracy, but errors or omissions may occur. If you see something off, please submit a correction.
  • Figures are presented in USD unless otherwise marked. (See: Methodology)

3) Methodology Short-Form

Round labels follow a tennis-style canon for consistency across tours:

  • Champion, Runner-Up, Semifinalist, Quarterfinalist, Round of 16, Round of 32, Round of 64.
  • PPA "3rd Place" payouts: placement remains Semifinalist, with a payout_bonus noted as "Third-Place Bonus".
  • MLP: Champion / Runner-Up / Semifinalist / Quarterfinalist only.
  • APP: Medal terms (Gold/Silver/Bronze) may appear in the UI, but in our database we store canonical round labels.
  • Side events / consolations are recorded separately and not as main placements.
  • Ties/grouped finishes may be shown as T# or ranges (e.g., T3, 5–8th) where applicable.
